Corduroy 21 wales with check and flowers

Baby velvet with beautiful patterns

Sometimes a pattern is that little extra something to give your design the finishing touch.

Here you get both the delicious baby wing AND a lovely pattern - what more could you wish for? 

Use it for cute little baby and children's outfits - for little trousers, spencer jackets and outerwar. It's so pretty and goes perfectly with a plain coloured t-shirt, for example.

Much more velvet

Velvet is a durable 100% cotton material. It is softly woven with short nap and therefore very suitable for sewing clothes for playful children.

The fabric has 21 wales and thus the finest narrow ridges that repeat stringently across the fabric. And yes - it's even added the cool pattern for extra details - it's really loveable.

Baby velvet is sold by the metre, so simply order the length you need. The width is 140 cm and the fabric shrinks about 6% in the wash.

Remember to use the right needles - we recommend a size 80 universal needle. 

What is Wales?

Wales indicates the width of the raised ridges in the velvet that defines the velvety texture of the fabric. A low Wales indicates wide ridges i.e. less ridges per inch. On the other hand, a high Wales indicates narrow ridges. For example velvet with 4 Wales per inch has wide ridges and will feel heavier, while velvet with 21 Wales per inch has narrow ridges and will feel finer.
